Washington's four doors for Lebanon
The article focused on Lebanon's pursuit of developing its economic relations with the United States, highlighting four main pathways: 1. **Oil and Gas**: Opportunities for American energy companies to enter the Lebanese market after the 2022 maritime boundary agreement between Lebanon and Israel, aimed at exploration and infrastructure development, with strengthened U.S. political support. 2. **Resumption of Direct Flights**: Restoring flights between Lebanon and the United States, which would boost international confidence and trigger tourism and commercial activity in Lebanon. 3. **Trade Relations**: Despite their strength, trade relations are suffering due to financial crises. However, economic stability in Lebanon could enhance the U.S. role as a major investor in supporting industries and the digital economy. 4. **IMF File**: Internal complexities and delays are present, but this situation offers Washington an opportunity to exert political influence and support financial reforms. In conclusion, the article emphasizes that the future of economic cooperation depends on Lebanon’s ability to regain investor confidence and implement necessary reforms, and that Washington is prepared to facilitate this, provided Lebanon fully respects its sovereignty and completes the economic reforms.
